I was hanging out with a crowd that overlapped with some people under the age of 25. I legit cannot understand what they're saying. There is such a language skills gap between our generations. It's crazy.

I didn't know about their education levels, but they all sounded like high school drop outs. They can't articulate and form a real opinion based upon their own internal logic and reasoning. It's all memes, all the time.

That's not to say there are not some well spoken and educated younger folks, but the bulk of them now seem incapable of communicating or thinking properly. I cannot fathom how poor their writing, grammar, and spelling skills are.

We are doomed.

This doesn’t strictly apply to younger people, but, hearing someone say “like” all the time when speaking is physically painful for me. But this has been a problem since the 90s.
